Page 289 - We are unalterably opposed to every measure calculated to debase our currency or impair the credit of our country. We are, therefore, opposed to the free coinage of silver, except by international agreement with the leading commercial nations of the world, which we pledge ourselves to promote, and until such agreement can be obtained the existing gold standard must be preserved.
Page 728 - Hence, as more individuals are produced than can possibly survive, there must in every case be a struggle for existence, either one individual with another of the same species, or with the individuals of distinct species, or with the physical conditions of life.
Page 76 - How beautiful this dome of sky ; And the vast hills, in fluctuation fixed At thy command, how awful ! Shall the soul, Human and rational, report of thee Even less than these ! Be mute who will, who can, Yet I will praise thee with impassioned voice : My lips, that may forget thee in the crowd, Cannot forget thee here ; where thou hast built, For thy own glory, in the wilderness ! Me didst thou constitute a priest of thine, In such a temple as we now behold Reared for thy presence ; therefore am I...

Page 720 - Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you. Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.
Page 79 - And since, by passion's force subdued, Too oft, with stubborn will, We blindly shun the latent good, And grasp the specious ill, — • 4 Not what we wish, but what we want, Let mercy still supply ; The good, unasked, O father, grant; The ill, though asked, deny.
